Knowing the basics of winemaking, as well as how to find, choose, and serve good wine is as much a science as it is an art. Charles Lytton's book showcases his long involvement with vineyards and his acting as consultant, pruner, marketer and on-site "here's how" man, combined with his candor and straightforward acknowledgment of what is truly important and what is "finger in the air" snobbery. And, of course, his work as a professional storyteller adds a certain glint to the narrative. Part reference work, part elegy to the wonders of nature, part down-home "let's get together" fun, this work is many readers may well hope will be the first of many, each focusing on a different collection of wines and wineries. A selection of Virginia wineries is featured here, but Lytton has spent years traveling the United States savoring wines and working with the people who create them.
